Course Summary

Be both a creative writer and a publisher. Customise your studies and prepare yourself for work in these increasingly entwined growth industries. Whether you want to join the traditional publishing industry, establish your own small press or set up a single-author imprint for your own novels, this Masters degree will help you meet your ambitions.

Publishing is a thriving international creative industry, central to the shaping and communication of human knowledge, creativity, and entertainment. It has never been more varied, from the Big Five and their many distinctive imprints to small, independent publishers of books and literary magazines.

Our practical, industry-focused course enables you to tailor assignments to your creative and professional interests. This is a structured programme of creative practice, alongside the analytical investigation of the literary world, and publishing strategy and processes.

In our creative writing workshops, you'll get feedback on your writing from other students as well as our experienced teaching team, giving you a unique perspective on how your work is read by different audiences. You'll learn how to develop and edit your work, and to find your voice as a writer.
